WARNING: Before securing child in the
restraint, always check that Child Restraint is
properly installed.
Harness straps are at correct height.
Rear Facing: AT or just below child’s shoulders

shoulders
Use Infant Insert with infants 5–11 lbs (2.3-5
kg) to improve fit to seat and harness and to
improve the recline angle for smaller infants.
Recline angle is appropriate for Child.
If infant’s head falls forward, Child Restraint
must be reclined more. Use Infant Insert
with infants 5–11 lbs (2.3–5 kg) to improve
the recline angle for smaller infants.
Head Support is locked in one of the 10 positions.
Harness Buckle is securely fastened. Pull to check!
Harness Straps are snug and flat on shoulders
and thighs.
A snug strap should not allow any slack. It lies
in a relatively straight line without sagging. It
does not press on the child's flesh or push the
child's body into an unnatural position.
WARNING: Child cannot be properly
secured in Child Restraint when wearing
bulky clothing or wrapped in a blanket. For
warmth, add blanket after properly securing
Child in the Child Restraint.
